During the canal's construction, Pierre-Paul Riquet allowed streams to flow into the canal. Excess water was discharged through weirs. This system generated alluvial deposits that silted up the canal and disrupted navigation. By 1685, boats were having difficulty navigating in many places. In 1686, King Louis XIV entrusted Vauban with an inspection of the Canal du Midi (then called the Royal Canal of Languedoc). This aqueduct has three arches. At low water levels, the Orbiel River flows only under the western arch. During floods, it overflows its banks, and sometimes the three arches are no longer sufficient to maintain the flow. In the most severe floods, the structure can be completely submerged, as was the case in 2018.

The pizzeria is nice, open from 12 o'clock

just a nice bike ride not difficult to do with the E bike you cycle over a gravel path from Carcassonne there and back I am not a sports cyclist but I cycle for fun short distances up to 30km and because I have to for shopping and to visit places so that the camper can stay at the campsite or camper place.

I'm following up on Paul's comment: Yes, the canal is a great immersion in history and the region However, don't hesitate to make a few forays outside the canal... we made a detour via Revel going up the channel, then climbed a little on the mountain, and it was also very nice. In summer, the canal is very busy...

A particularly beautiful bridge on the Canal du Midi.
